How would one go about creating a custom set to draft from, from preexisting cards (i.e. making a set to make a sealed pool from that would have cards from different sets)?
it is basically freeware. You just have to get the unregistered version. But you basically get all the features of the registered version without registering. The only advantages of the registered version is you get to change the default avatar and the default background while playing games.
And yes, people DO register for it.

It says for the free version you can only use 30 card sets and only test using mirror match. I thought that meant you could only make 30 card decks and play against the same deck. Is there anywhere I can download all the cards and everything?

you can have as many cards as you wish in the free version. I think the card set thingy basically means that you can only make 30 custom sets (not sure on that though).
Also, the testing vs. a deck you designed in solitaire mode is something that makes the registered version of the program worth purchasing in my opinion.

Thanks for all the help, I had no idea what the mirror thing was, I thought it meant you could only play other players with the same deck.
basically when they mention testing and mirror match in the same sentence, it refers to the fact that when you play a solitaire game on the unregistered version that the program automatically pits you against the very same deck that you entered the match playing.

if someone somehow someplace got ahold of the zendikar spoilers would they be allowed to port them into mws before the prerelease, or would that not be allowed?

I would assume if someone got the full spoiler this early, and they ported it into the MWS program for private use there would be no problem. However if they publically displayed said spoiler for all people to view and download / install into their MWS and start testing with it... then I think they are opening themselves up to both being banned from the DCI for a fairly long time... and potentially being sued by Wizards.

I have a probably fairly simple question.
I'm not sure where to post this, so I'll leave it here.
I'm having trouble having the cards appear in my library. I tried uninstalling it and installing it again and it appeared. Then I tried to upload themes onto the cards and was forced to close MWS. After I reopened it, all the cards disappeared. I can't seem to get them to appear onto the library again. Can anyone provide step by step instructions on how to get them back?
Also, I'm having trouble finding a place to download card pics. Thanks for the help!

...say like MTGSalvation are doing right now? This is simply scare-mongering, and is factually incorrect. MTGSalvation have had the set in text format for you to download and import into MWS weeks before the pre-release in the case of sets like 10th Edition. People are free to share spoiler information, and people regularly make the spoiler into an MWS-friendly file for downloading before the prerelease...

Yes.
Like I said, I just can't get the library to appear on MWS. It's on the comp, just not there.
It's quite possible that you have set the Main filter for MWS to nothing, or that the Masterbase isn't loaded. To correct the latter, open the Master.mwbase file with the 'open libraries' command. To correct the former is more complicated, and I can't remember how to do it, I think that you need to re-download the required masterbase file, choose all of the sets, and then click 'Set as MAIN filter', but I'm not sure if that works. Just a thought....

Actually... if you hadn't noticed... ever since about the time of Alara Reborn's spoilers... the full spoiler for a set isn't completely spoiled until approximately ONE week at the most prior to the Pre-Release. Additionally Wizards has a great deal more control over the set spoilers and has had such control ever since Conflux was totally screwed up as far as spoilers go. The reason for this is due to Wizards wishing to protect their copyrights and trademarks. So yes, we do get the full spoiler before the Pre-Release... but not far enough before it to make it worthwhile.

Does the person who makes the pictures simply go onto the wizards website, and ctrl+c a picture, then ctrl+v it into the gimp, save it and go on to the next one.
Or does one actually get the cards and scan them? Because I thought they did the earlier, but i am not quite certain.

As for downloading the entire library of cards for MWS, there are a couple of options available to you, but in my opinion the best one is http://www.slightlymagic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=459

I handily beat my opp first game, when we start second game, it lags a bit, and then when it loads up, we've swapped names and decks. It was awesome.

and downloaded the cropped pics. It said that MWS would automatically use the download, but I have yet to see the cropped pics on my cards. Help?
